Hello,
for a project I am currently working at, I have to use form-buttons
and normal links (a href...) in the same pages together. Both should
look the same. No problem with IE and Opera but I cannot get this to
work with Mozilla.
If anyone would like to give me an hint, he can find an example here: http://www.wiesodenn.de/problem/problem.html
dummy1 and dummydummy2 are form-buttons, dummy3 is the href-link.
The text for the buttons and the links is generated with php and that
is the reason why Ido not want to use images with grafic text as
buttons.
Does anyone know how to make this work with the main browsers?
All three buttons should have the same size and that small border half
way round...
(by the way, I cannot check this on a Mac, I f anyone would be so
nice..., thank you)
Thank you in advance for any answer..

They all look pretty much the same in my Mozilla 1.3, except that the
first button is a bit smaller than the others.

Could you restructure the page such that dummy1 and dummy2 were not within
the form? If so you could then create little forms that just contained the
submit button:
<form action="dummy1" method="GET"><i nput type="submit"
value="dummy1"> </form>
That will work in all browsers that support forms. The downside is that
search engines, etc will not be able to follow the links and the links will
not be rendered correctly as links in a non-visual browser.

Hmm, the whole application consits of a lot of pages. I think I could
do this on some of them, but on all? I have to try.
That will work in all browsers that support forms. The downside is that search engines, etc will not be able to follow the links and the links will not be rendered correctly as links in a non-visual browser.
This would be no problem, as the pages build an applictaion for a
customer in internet where only customer people will have account to
use the pages.
I will try to follow your advice.
Thank you.

Yes, that is the problem. The button is smaller and the drawn right
hand border is not visible. For a proper layout, all the buttons need
to appear the same size. If the link on the button would have less
characters, the button would be more small.

CSS is your friend. Consider styling for both links and buttons.

Normally I would agree, but this is going to be an application for a
closed circle of users. (Replacement for a software they used
locally).
I think (in this case only!) it would be more confusing for the user,
to explain why this here is a button and that there is a link ...
It is not meant for tricking the user but to give him something he
remenbers.

Yes, I tried, as you can see in the example, but I was unable to make
them look like they should.
Perhaps you can hint me the right way...

This is one I used recently:
#button {
margin:0;
display:inline;
color:#fff;
background-color:#f00;
text-decoration:none ;
font-family: tahoma;
font-weight:900;
border:1px solid #fff;
}
a.button {
color:#fff;
background-color:#f00;
text-decoration:none ;
font-size:1em;
font-weight:900;
font-family: tahoma;
padding: 0.5ex 1ex;
border:1px solid #fff;
}
I'd like to know what shortcomings it has - if any in your application.

Im trying to prevent the user from clicking any other links on my page when

Sometimes it takes a while before the next page loads so some user will try

I can prevent this when i use buttons by calling onclick and in a javascript

I'm using eight links listed horizontally as a menu on my site. I'm

same task very gracefully (yeah Gecko!) and I would like to force IE to
do the same.

Hi
I made a links list which looks like buttons.
http://lingo.uib.no/v5/buttontest.html
I'm stuck now. How do I get the black border right when the button is
pressed? The thing is, buttons really have TWO borders, making it even
more 3d-ish. So I had the links in spans with a thin dark grey border to
wrap a container around the link, but it didn't work out.
